Do these guys really meet the highest standard set by the state like they stated in their bio or…read morethe bare minimum? Well let me answer that for you. I have been driving for four years with no accidents and no tickets. I came in to take my test and the instructor said it would be no longer than 15 minutes. I thought okay cool even better. We hop onto the road and I am feeling really confident given that I have so much experience on the road. I make full stops, check my blind spots, my turn signal is on 100+ ft prior to my turn, went 20 in school zone, merged with no problems. When I go back to park the car after, the instructor said "let me do some math" and starts knocking off a ton of stuff like I was still driving. That already made me mad because why wasn't it done during the test? Now you just look like a scammer trying to look for a fast cash grab (spoiler: I was right). I so vividly remember him only writing on the paper three times while I was driving. All the sudden the paper looks like a scratch sheet during a math test with all this mumbo jumbo written on it and a bunch of scribbles on the road map. I still felt confident that I passed and then I look at my score and I miss the passing grade by 1 point. Are we being serious right now? Coincidence..? I THINK NOT! The instructor began to explain what I missed. No blindspot checking for my 2nd merge (wrong - I remember quite literally making a whole turn of the body just so he acknowledges my blindspot check + I only merged once within our short 10 minute drive), the car was in the cross walk (I made full stops at the line before creeping up to check oncoming traffic), and my turn signal was late (I am a late turn signals biggest hater - I know first hand to turn it on 100 feet before turning). It literally felt like he was just searching for anything to mark me down for and I know exactly why. They want you to keep paying. You basically pay to pass at this business. When he had offered me to schedule another test, I went in and they asked that I pay ANOTHER $75. I said yeah no cancel that appointment and lose my number. When I hopped into my car, I looked these guys up on Yelp and felt like I walked the prank for not checking here first before booking. They even gave me a sheet to rate them and turn into the DMV. Best believe the DMV is going to be taking these guys off their approved third party test proctors after my survey gets turned in. Save your money and go somewhere else AND let them know you are onto the scams that these kinds of companies run. Its currently way past when I took the test and I'm still mad, so I just had to hop on and let my opinion be known.

Corvallis Waldorf School (CWS) has been an incredible place for our family. As a parent of two…read morechildren attending the school, I have consistently felt inspired and, in a sense, healed each time I experience the warmth and uniqueness of the community at assemblies or school events. I sometimes refer to the Waldorf approach as a "healing curriculum," because it deeply aligns with how we parent at home and enriches my children's lives immensely. What originally drew me to CWS was its balanced, holistic approach to education and the relationships that they build with their teachers - importantly, that their main lesson teacher takes them through all the grades- 1 through 8. The Waldorf curriculum avoids the use of individual iPads and screen-based learning. Instead, it focuses on the arts, nature, and hands-on activities. Beginning in grade 4, students learn to play a string instrument and receive instruction three days a week during regular school hours. Physical education and outdoor play are core to their daily routine--children spend substantial time outside regardless of the weather. Influenced by Natalie Wexler's book, "The Knowledge Gap," I deeply value the knowledge-rich education my children are receiving at CWS, that builds knowledge year after year. For example, students explore ancient civilizations and Greek mythology in grade 5, delve into Roman history through the Middle Ages in grade 6, study the Renaissance in grade 7, and progress to modern history in grade 8. Math instruction is engaging and tangible in the early grades, and students receive support whether they need extra assistance or advanced enrichment. My children have also developed remarkable writing skills, producing beautiful, creative work in cursive. The practical skills my kids are gaining through handwork (knitting, sewing, crocheting) and woodworking are not only joyful, but practical too - that knowing that you can complete a project that takes months as well as the hand eye gymnastics is great for the brain. Socially, the teachers foster a nurturing environment where children feel supported discussing and resolving interpersonal conflicts, guided by caring adults. For example, some teachers host "teatime" to create a warm circled-up pause-i-the-day for children to reflect and openly discuss ways to improve social dynamics. The joy I've observed in my kids since enrolling here reaffirms our decision every day. I highly recommend Corvallis Waldorf School to families seeking an intentional, joyful, and holistic educational experience. The only downside is that there isn't a high school program!

I purchased my last "new" laptop at Nextstep years ago as well and think this business is well worth supporting. I dislike that I had to "upgrade" since Windows 10 will soon stop working--a selfish decision on MIcrosoft's part which forces us into using the inferior Windows 11 and makes obsolete millions of perfectly good computers, which depletes even faster our poor world's resources. Thank heavens for Nextstep which keeps as much as they can out of the garbage stream and which helps so many people. The prices are very reasonable and I prefer supporting Nextstep rather than Goodwill whose CEOs own yachts and siphon off a lot of what should go to good causes like Nextstep.
